Hey bros.

With your help, I managed to resolve my other issue. It turns out that it wasn't the PSU or Video Card that was fucking up my game but rather one of my sticks of RAM was jewing up. I decided to replace my 4x2GB PC3-10600 9-9-9 sticks with 2x4GB PC3-10600 7-7-7 sticks. Unfortunately the performance seems to be lagging a bit so I read that the latency timing could be the issue.

I looked on CPU-Z and saw that my current latency is set to 9-9-9, although in the timing table it looks like I should be running 7-7-7. (That's assuming I'm reading things right.)

I booted into the BIOS to see if I could manually change my timings and I guess my no-name Pegatron M2N78-LA motherboard (Thanks, HP) doesn't have that option available in the BIOS.

So, what should I do? Obviously, there is the option of replacing the motherboard but I'd like to try other things first. One guy suggested that I reset the CMOS, as the CMOS has all the BIOS settings inside it. Is this a good suggestion or will resetting the CMOS fuck up a dozen other things, too?

Thanks in advance for your advice... and Merry Christmas, bitches.

BIOS update will likely be your only hope of fixing that. I'm sure someone here can tell you how to do it.

You likely won't notice any difference at all, but my initial guess is both ram sticks you have are not identical so it defaulted to the slower one.
